four-panel cartoon of Trumpy (#56, volume 2), with the title/logo in the top left corner, "by the Dæricks Gröss" in the top right corner, the Studio G logo in the bottom left corner with "find us on BlueSky @trumpy.studiogart.net", and "Vol.2#56 03-31-2026" in the bottom right corner.

All four panels depict Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth in the background standing at a lectern speaking to the press, represented by a bunch of hands holding microphones pointed at him.  In the foreground, we see the backs of the heads of several of the reporters. The panels are basically the same, with Hegseth changing expressions on his face in the background. The reporters are whispering to each other as Hegseth carries on silently in the background.

Panel 1
Reporter 1: "Hegseth is quoting the Old Testament? Overwhelming
violence?  Deserve no mercy?"
Reporter 2: "In Jesus' name?"

Panel 2
Reporter 1: "This doesn't sound like Jesus..."
Reporter 2: "He says this after he's bombed a school..."

Panel 3
Reporter 1: "This is insane! He's psychotic!"
Reporter 2: "Indeed. What are you going to do about it?"

Panel 4
Reporter 1: "Me? Nothing. I'm waiting for someone else to do something..."
Reporter 2: "So is everyone else..."

Have you seen it?

If you like Martin Scorsese's, it is one of his best. Easily in his top ten films. Probably his top five.

two-panel cartoon of Trumpy (#54, volume 2), with the title/logo in the top left corner, "by the Dæricks Gröss" in the top right corner, the Studio G logo in the bottom left corner with "find us on BlueSky @trumpy.studiogart.net", and "Vol.2#54 03-17-2026" in the bottom right corner.

Both panels depict Trumpy standing at a lectern speaking to the press, represented by a bunch of hands holding microphones pointed at him.  The panels are exactly the same otherwise, with Trumpy listening to the press and trying to respond.  Trumpy in panel one he raises his hand with his finger up to make his point, his expression more pleased and self-important, and in panel two he stands with his arms down and a more serious expression on his face.  The lectern is faced with a red banner and a squared, black and white dollar sign symbol reminiscent of a nazi swastika.

Panel 1
Press: "Mr. President, Can you comment on Kevin Hassett's recent statement that the war won't disrupt the U.S. economy but will hurt consumers?  Is it really the "last of our concerns right now"?"
Trumpy: "Yes, Kevin is totally, 100% correct."

Panel 2
Press: "Aren't we ALL "consumers"? Does that mean everyone..."
Trumpy: "...is the absolute last thing I am concerned about."

All panels depict JD Vance (clutching a large red book to his chest, titles Project 2025 in white letters) standing at a lectern speaking to the press, represented by a bunch of hands holding microphones pointed at him.  The panels are identical, other than Vance fades out across the panels until he has completely vanished in Panel 4. 

Panel 1
Press speaking: "Mr. Vice President, you are among the most public, outspoken vice presidents in history... ...yet since the U.S. started the war with Iran you've been noticeably silent..."

Panel 2
Press 1: "Last summer you said you're not looking for regime change, their nuclear program was pushed back by "many years", and that you are not interested in boots on the ground... Why are we doing this?"
Press 2: "Are you at odds with the President over this decision?"

Panel 3
Press 1: "Do you have any comment about the schoolchildren the U.S. murdered?"
Press 2: "Is your silence a hedge against the growing unpopularity of the war?"
Press 3: "Any comment on the rumors the President is going to throw Hegseth or Rubio under the bus for this mess?"
Press 4: (partially hidden and incomplete) "If you were to become president and inherit this conflict, how quickly would you..."
Press 5: "What are your thoughts about the President playing golf while this crisis is unfolding?"
Press 6: "How do you justify $1B per day for the war to Americans struggling to make ends meet?"

Panel 4
No speaking, the panel is silent and Vance has vanished completely.

The panels are exactly the same otherwise, with Hegseth listening to the press and trying to respond.

The lectern is faced with a red banner and a stylized bomb symbol in black on a white circle, reminiscent of a nazi swastika graphic.

Panel 1
Press: "Sec. Hegseth, can you describe to what extent the U.S. is involved in the Israeli strike on Iran?"
Hegseth: "I defer to the White House for any official comment about this."
Press: "Is there anything you can tell us?"

Panel 2
